The Militarization of Police Will Bring Dire Consequences

I talk often about the militarization of local and state police. I do so because I think it is one of the most instructive windows into the future, a gauge of just how far the state is willing to go.

More and more police departments, regardless of size and regardless if there is little or no violent crime, now have SWAT teams. These SWAT teams are conducting over 80,000 raids a year, mostly against non-violent drug offenders, and the number of SWAT attacks against citizens is still greatly expanding. Now these brutal and militarized teams have access to any number of weapons and tactical equipment, weapons and military style equipment used only for domestic situations.

Domestic police nationwide are being armed by the federal government, especially by the Defense Department and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and have been for some time. They will go to great lengths to gain access to any type of tactical equipment including military small arms, automatic weapons, special ammunition, body armor, aircraft including drones, Humvees, special weapon scopes, infrared imaging systems, night-vision goggles and many other items suited only to the military. The latest and much more ominous addition to many police departments across the country takes what once was known as normal policing to a new and very dangerous level.

More and more police and sheriff’s departments all over the U.S. have and continue to receive from the Defense Department, fully armor protected 18 ton military war vehicles similar to tanks called mine-resistant ambush-protected vehicles (MRAPS). These are vehicles that are bomb proof with gun turrets and bulletproof glass. They are meant for war, so what are local police planning? A better question would be, what are the feds planning by arming to the teeth their now local and state police partners?

This past year, police and sheriff’s departments have gotten for free, actually at federal taxpayers expense, 165 of these armored war tanks. There are currently requests for another 731, but availability is getting low. That will change dramatically as these tank-like military vehicles are retired from battle, and soon rerouted to your local police who apparently are now on the fed’s front line of the domestic combat zone.

In addition to these war machines, the police are also actively seeking drones, drones meant for spying and surveillance, tracking “suspected” wrongdoers, crowd control in civil unrest situations and even for armed assault against those the state claims are criminals.

We live in a fascist oligarchy that has become a total police state. There is no doubt about that fact at this stage of the game. The federal government is taking over the streets of America, and doing so with the help and full cooperation of the military and the National Guard and Reserves. The local police, including the sheriff’s departments and the state police are now under the control of federal forces. They are literally working as one unit with the feds against the people of this country.

If this is allowed to stand, and I see no major impediment by the masses at this time, this fascist state will become much more controlling, more belligerent and brutal, more confiscatory and certainly more deadly. All these risks begin with surveillance of the people. From this Dave Hodges article today:

“Every advancing tyranny has two distinct stages. In the first stage, the “enemies” of the state are identified. Lists are created and distributed among law enforcement. These lists are often leaked to the public to serve as a deterrent against any thoughts of engaging in anti-government behavior. There is typically a prolonged period of demonization followed by formal labeling.”

“In the second stage of tyranny, the identified groups are singled out for “corrective” action. Corrective action usually commences on an incremental basis. Following identification, enemies of the state are usually singled out for employment discrimination, travel restrictions, residency restrictions and then the inevitable incarcerations and worse begin to transpire. This pattern happens every time following the establishment of a police state in America. America does indeed meet the denotation of a police state according to the dictionary.”

“Once this process begins, the advancement of tyrannical persecution of the people is inevitable without a revolution. The whole process begins with unwarranted surveillance.”

The surveillance state is completely active and fully operational. The lists of dissenters and those labeled as enemies of the state are firmly in place. The state’s agents of force, the complicit and weaponized police and military, are fully prepared for control and containment. Total tyranny is close at hand, and any single government orchestrated false flag event could trigger the chaos necessary for the state to implement martial law. So prepare yourselves my friends, because each day brings us closer to the inevitable revolution!
